Supplier Device Package 20-SSOP (0.154", 3.90mm Width)

The ML65541CK from Fairchild Semiconductor is a single-channel, non-inverting buffer with 3-State outputs. It operates from 4.75V to 5.25V and provides 100µA input current and 25mA output drive. This device is ideal for signal buffering, clock distribution, and bus isolation in 5V systems. Its 20-SSOP package and 0°C to 70°C temperature range make it suitable for commercial and industrial applications.

  • 3-State Output: Allows bus isolation and multiple device sharing.
  • 25mA Output Drive: Can drive LEDs, relays, and other peripherals directly.
  • Precise 5V Operation: Ideal for regulated 5V power supplies.
  • Compact SSOP Package: Saves board space in dense designs.
  • Non-Inverting Buffer: Preserves signal polarity.

Signal Buffering for Sensors

The ML65541CK buffers weak sensor signals before they reach an ADC or microcontroller. Its 3-State output allows multiple sensors to share a single ADC input line.

Clock Distribution

In digital systems, this buffer can distribute a clock signal to multiple loads without degradation. The 25mA output drive ensures strong signal integrity.

Bus Isolation

Use the 3-State feature to isolate a subsystem from a main bus when not in use, reducing power consumption and preventing data corruption.

Peripheral Driving

This buffer can drive LEDs or small relays directly, thanks to its 25mA sink capability, simplifying interface circuitry.

Test Equipment Interfaces

In benchtop test equipment, the ML65541CK provides a clean buffered output for measurement probes, ensuring accurate signal capture.

Industrial Process Control

For 5V industrial controllers, this buffer isolates and drives control signals to actuators, operating reliably from 0°C to 70°C.

Q: What is the logic family of the ML65541CK?
A: This device is not specified under a standard logic family like 74LS or 74HC; it is a standalone buffer from Fairchild Semiconductor.
Q: What is the function of this IC?
A: It is a single-channel, non-inverting buffer with 3-State outputs, used to strengthen weak signals.
Q: What is the operating voltage range?
A: It operates from 4.75V to 5.25V, making it suitable for precise 5V applications.
Q: How many channels does it have?
A: It has 1 channel, providing a single buffer path.
Q: What is the output type?
A: The output is 3-State, allowing the buffer to be disabled and its output to be high-impedance.
